Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Linkind Dimmable Listed Halogen Equivalent: Superb Lighting Control for Any Space by Justin Zilinskas

Revainrating 1 out of 5

dimming very bad and closer to 50W; Attention other reviews

I bought these because they had 20 five star reviews (January 2020), they were dimmable and advertised as 70w vs 50w (which is the most common). I have two light bulbs in close proximity so I left one bulb with a 50w Phillips halogen bulb and replaced the other bulb with the Linkind LED which I am considering. Cons: - Flicker when dimming. With a weak dimming, they sometimes just switch off completely. I thought a bulb might be defective. So I tried another one and got the same results. There's also a slight delay when you turn it on when it's dimmed. The bulbs are listed as 70w, but at 100% the light was no brighter than a 50w halogen. I was wondering how this product could have 20 five star reviews and still not live up to expectations (especially with the power outage). I carefully re-read the reviews and found that almost all of them contain subtle, non-standard grammatical errors and odd sentences. I'm willing to bet these are fake reviews and may have been machine generated. I returned the item as defective.

Pros
  • โžฃ SAVE ENERGY AND MONEY: 6.5 W replace 70 W halogen lamps, shine with the same brightness and save over 90% on energy costs. No frequent replacement required with a long service life of 25,000 hours.
Cons
  • Short manual
